I need recommendations for flowers for wedding bouquets. The colors are yellow and cream.?

I already know that I want daises, daffodills, and cream colored roses. I don't know what else, though. I was planning on going with artificial flowers to save money, and so I can keep them. So whatever suggestions you may have, please let me know!

I need recommendations for flowers for wedding bouquets. The colors are yellow and cream.?
Lilies would be gorgeous in that bouquet as you've planned it, there are several styles, stephanotis is another you might try (a bit stronger scent and lovely). Dendrobium orchids are another possibility.





Be sure to make a "throw away" bouquet for the bride so that you can keep the one you carried down the aisle.





Artificial flowers can definitely save you a great deal in cost and if arranged artistically you can't tell the difference in pictures or from the audience. If you live in a large city or near one (L.A. or San Francisco, NY, etc) you could also try a flower warehouse.


Be sure to have your bouquet dried so you can preserve it.





Congrats and best wishes.

Reply:Luckily, you can find great flowers at craft stores. Often times they look very natural and are very reasonably priced. An option for you, due to the fact that you want daisies and daffodils, may be to create a natural bouquet. Daisies and daffodils are often regarded as "wildflowers". Begin the bouquet with the daisies and daffodils since you know that you want these included. Next, choose your roses - a tea rose would compliment the other flowers better than a larger bloom. For fillers, you could choose sprays of grasses in deep greens with white or gold highlights. Also, stems and/or sprays with berries is a beautiful compliment to your bouquet. A deep blue or violet would be perfect with the degrees of white in your daisies and roses. Also, you could incorporate vines, such as jasmine and honeysuckle to give the bouquet a wispy, romantic feel. Due to the type of flowers you began with, I would recommend hand tying the bouquet by wrapping a gold or ivory ribbon around the mid-section of the stems.





In addition, for bridesmaids, there are some excellent options. One large, long stemmed gerber daisy with a bow tied on the stem would be beautiful.





I hope this helps. Congratulations! Don't be afraid to use your imagination or experiment.
Reply:Maybe try to incorporate another colour other than yellow and white so that if the bridesmaids are wearing one of those colours, the flowers won't completely blend into their dresses in the pictures. A nice colour to go with yellow and cream are different shades of purple so you could add a few flowers in that way.
Reply:My advice is to go look at craft stores for the flowers you want in your boquet and then get some ideas on how you want to arrange them my mom grandmother and I put together my sister's boquet as well as the ones for the bridesmaids. I believe that the more you do yourself the more beautiful it will be. Good luck! And congratulations!
